In the present study, toxicity was developed by oral administration of AFB1 at a dose of (2μg/kg body weight) for 45 days in male mice. Curcuma longa (100 and 200 mg/kg body weight) and Curcumin (50 and 100 mg/kg body weight) were given individually and in combination with AFB1 for 45 days. At the end of 45 days, the blood samples were collected from various groups by heart puncture in eppendro...

Blood level monitoring helps to determine the therapeutic and toxic ranges for anticonvulsants and antidepressants. We investigated initial drug-drug interactions between lamotrigine and sertraline. We report on case histories of two epileptic patients who were initially on lamotrigine and to whom sertraline was added to control psychiatric features. In case 1, a total daily dose of 25 mg sertr...
